On December 26, AKB48 member Kasai Tomomi (21), who announced her graduation from the group earlier this month, appeared at Tower Records Shinjuku to hand her photos to the fans who purchased her solo debut song “Masaka.”

This was the first time she met with fans since her graduation announcement, and she handed her photos to 400 fans in person. Kasai said, “This is my first 'handing in person' event. Since I was able to tell fans directly ‘Thank you,’ I am happy.”
